Abstract

Systems and methods for optimization of access points in a Wi-Fi system by a cloud controller include receiving inputs related to operation of the Wi-Fi system; performing an optimization based on the inputs to maximize an objective function which maximizes excess capacity for a load ratio considering a load desired by each Wi-Fi client device; and providing outputs comprising operational parameters for the Wi-Fi system based on the optimization. The optimization chooses which access point each Wi-Fi client device connects to in the Wi-Fi system.
